Good all around resource
This book makes a good all around resource for beginners who want to learn the proper way to can food. Most if this info is common knowledge in places like old ball.or Kerr canning books..so it is solid advice. Canning is not for everyone, neither is welding. do UT if you like it, if not , don’t worry about it..there are plenty different ways to prep.

This Is A Good Fundamental Text On The Subject
If this subject is new to you and an activity you want to learn more about, this is one of several texts on the market that we found useful. One review under the category of the “worst” is overly harsh stating that she feels the book is dangerous, and shouldn’t be on the market. For the money this text covers the basic introduction to practice of preserving food. It falls in line with other books on the subject. It’s a good starting place at a reasonable price. You don’t need to be a lettered health food science person to learn something from this book. There is nothing dangerous at all about the information in this publication. Just do your homework. We found the book very useful. Thumbs up.

Am new to pressure canning and this is the first book I bought to learn the basics. Excellent discussion of everything you need to know for safe pressure canning with common equipment. The recipes are useful and very tasty — favorites so far (pretty much in order of tastiness!) are Chicken Pot Pie Filling, Beef and Bean Chili, Beef Stroganoff, and Chicken Cacciatore. Will be running a batch of Sloppy Joes in a day or two as I just happen to have all of the ingredients on hand.My only complaint with the recipes — and this does not rate knocking off a star — is that some call for Clear Jel, which seems to be hard to find or very expensive in Canada. Clear Jel is a thickener and I just omit it when it’s called for, with the understanding that I’ll have to thicken the food when I actually go to eat it. When I heat up, say, the Chicken Pot Pie Filling, I thicken it with a bit of flour and sour cream. All of the things that call for Clear Jel are edible and still very tasty without the Clear Jel or additional flour thickening. I don’t recommend adding flour to the recipes when canning them — the flour may mess with the canning process and temperature propagation through the food and jar when canning.I’ve bought this book twice as I damaged and nearly destroyed my first copy by spilling liquid on it. I still use the damaged copy — pages detached from the spiral binding but they are still legible! — but I have a pristine copy in reserve on my bookshelf should the working copy sustain any more damage. I really like this book and it’s been my primary reference for pressure canning. Highly recommended for beginners.
